Online Mentoring and the Presentation:
How does this work?
The answer is simple. It is for you and
your mentee to work out how they are
going to do this.
Students may also need to write about
this process in their SLS Reflection –
this is the essential part of their third
meeting with you..
Whatever system is chosen, you and
your mentee must both be able to see
their PowerPoint slides and you must
hear them make the presentation .
NOTE:
If you are offering on-line Mentoring
you must have been using some form
of Video conferencing in your
mentoring already - this is obligatory.
